Urgent! Time Critical! Help Major Paul Hackett get elected.

Marine Corps Major Paul Hackett volunteered to go to Iraq. Now he wants to serve as the Congressman from the Second Congressional District of Ohio.

This is a historically Republican district, and no Democrat has received more than 37 per cent of the vote since Thomas Luken in 1974. With less than one week to go, this race is within 5 points.

Not only is it within five points, but Jean Schmidt, the Republican candidate, is tanking (from the swingstate Project). Schmidt has had to borrow money from Tom DeLays ARMPAC, and the republicans are sending tons of money to try to resurrect her campaign. As you expect from the Republicans they are doing a "Swift Boat" smear on Major Hackett.

The election is August 2d. Major Hackett needs your financial help NOW. Click through here to ActBlue - Paul Hackett for Congress, Ohio, District 2 and be generous.

We need Major Hackett in Congress. Do what you can.
